How Can I Help?

We are so very fortunate that the Humanitarian effort of the Church is not only so complete, but so organized.

According to this website, items that would be most beneficial to the Church right now are:
full sized quilts.

By clicking here, you can find patterns for many of the items (including quilts) that the church will request.

The church has a surplus of the following items and does not currently need any more:
Children's toys
Receiving blankets and
Girl's hair accessories.

This information does get updated monthly. As the needs of people around the world change, so does the Humanitarian effort. Possibly something that is not needed now, will again be requested in the future.

By clicking here, you can find all of this information on LDS.org.

As the Oakwood Ward Relief Society we want to do all that we can to help out. We love that the Sisters are so enthusiastic about these service projects. We have had two recent Enrichment activities dedicated to service, and we are planning another in July. This seems like an excellent Missionary opportunity... a chance to bring friends unfamiliar with what the Church is all about.

On a trip to Mesa, Sister Andrews was informed that they are in need of the plastic canvas cubes that we have been working on. We have lots of cubes that need to be finished. If you are interested in a project that you can work on at home, let us know!
